Fundraiser – Ford Drive One for Your School

Good afternoon, Turner Lions!  We have a great opportunity coming up for our clubs and organizations to earn some money through the Ford “Drive One For Your School” fundraiser.  On October 4th, we will have brand new Ford vehicles here, available for tests drives, from 9:30am to 5:30pm.  If we can schedule 300 test drives, we can earn a total of $8000 for our campus.  $3000 has been earmarked for prom costs, which means there is $5000 up for grabs for your clubs or organizations.  This is where you come in:

  • Each club/organization will receive funds based on the number of test drives it can generate.
  • The club/organization with the most test drives will win an extra $500.
  • Every club/organization with at least 20 test drives will receive an extra $200
  • Every club/organization with at least 10 test drives will receive an extra $100

You can share this post with your booster club president and members, to parent and community supporters, to your family and friends, to anyone that you believe might be willing to come and test drive a new Ford.  They can sign up for a time slot through the link below to Sign Up Genius.  All test drivers must be 18 and have a valid license and insurance.  The test drives will take about 5 minutes.  When each test driver fills out the form for their test drive, they will indicate which club or organization they are supporting on the top of the form.
